If you think GTA 4 is overrated then you should play Mafia 2

1. No auto-aim...? YEAH!!! A bit more towards skill, it is.

2. People have different tastes. I, for one, don't mind more realistic gameplay.

3. What did you expect? At least I didn't expect a proper sandbox game, I expected a somewhat linear game with an open world.

4. Too bad... Well, unless you're just stupid and missed something obvious, the game really is buggy. I suspect the latter.

5. Can't say much about this, I've only tried Godfather 2 and haven't even tried Mafia II.

6. There are funny games, there are serious games, but both can be fun to play in their own way. Here, GTA IV is the funny game and Mafia II is the serious game.

Despite not having played Mafia II, I had to share my own view on the issue. All in all: you were expecting a different type of a game than you should have. The game probably is good but it's not a game for you. You like different games. Apples and oranges, you know.

1. Skill has nothing to do with bad shooting mechanics.

2. I love realistic games, except when the game is supposed to be fun..

3. More stuff to do? Thats what i expected, why make an open world with nothing to do?

5- There we  go, your points have no value because you havent played Mafia 2, story is good for a game but the gameplay mechanics are shit.

6. The  funny/serious aspects only matter in the story. The gameplay is below average.

1. Is the issue with no auto-aim or simply bad shooting mechanics? Or do you simply dislike having to aim yourself? I like aiming, not having the game aim for myself. Even on consoles, even though I mainly play games on PC.

2. And realistic games can't be fun...? I think I missed your point.

3. To not make the game feel so linear? Why are you so upset they made the world open?

5. I know... Some of those arguments just seemed ridiculous. "I wanted an apple but got an orange instead."

6. I don't know if gameplay really is below average or what, but otherwise I disagree. A serious game is often a more realistic one, while a 'funny' game is often more unrealistic.

1. Both, its annoying to have to use an awful shooting system and not be able to lock onto a target.

2. Mafia 2 isnt realistic in 99% of the areas, but the shooting is supposed to be realistic? Bull.  As for realistic games, thats all i play on PC and i even played OPF on 360, whcih is realistic to the max.

3. Why even make an open world if you cant do stuff, its just a waste of time driving around to place  that the story will never be at.

5.When you think  mob, you think of the godfather movies, you think you would have some sense of really being in a mob, not just a 5 man squad of guys who claim to be the mob. Its like if in CoD that 4 guys were the entire US army, its like what the hell happened to the rest of the guys?

 

Another thing that sucks is you get money to do nothing with besides pay the other "mob" members. Wow that makes me feel like a mobster....
